Product Description

Chemical synthesis, cosmetic, food industry raw material PROPIONIC ACID CAS 79-09-4

Propanoic acid, also known as primary oleic acid, is a short-chain saturated fatty acid with a chemical formula of CH3CH2COOH and a molecular weight of 74.08. Propanoic acid is a weak electrolyte (Ka = 1.34 × 10-5). Its aqueous solution is weakly acidic, but highly corrosive, and its vapor is irritating to the skin and respiratory tract. At room temperature and pressure, propanoic acid is a colorless, clear, oily liquid with an unpleasant, rancid, and pungent odor. It is miscible with water, ethanol, chloroform, and ether.
